ACHF Cultural Heritage
As a result of this event, school age children and adults will gain a new awareness about Mexican-American culture through dance, food, and art. Evaluation will occur through questionnaires, event attendance, and a follow-up meeting with our team.
The Cinco event served to affirm the presence of our growing Hispanic community in Northwest Minnesota through celebration of Mexican culture, traditions, and heritage. The planning and celebration brought together individuals from the hispanic community in Northwest Minnesota, the University of Minnesota Crookston campus, and wider Minnesota. The efforts of all increased a sense of belonging and connectedness in our community.
